May the life force be with you!

Part 2.  Of is your life working for or against you. How full is your emotional bank account? If its empty then keep reading this article will help you.

In the last short article on this topic, I spoke about values and how our intrinsic value system pushes us in certain directions.  The life you are experiencing now is just a manifestation of those desires and priorities.  Most of what you want in life is the same as everyone else, so why is it one person seems to take flying leaps and bounds into the positive future and another person find everything a struggle?  There can be a couple of influences that compound on the outcomes. 

Firstly there is the matter of goals, for example people may have seen me struggle in my life and yet in truth the goals I have set for my life are so big that other people would never have even thought to do what I do, let alone do it. 

Secondly, and most importantly, there is the personal care factor of the life experience; generally people don’t know how to take care of themselves in the journey. 

So today we will talk about the second in these topics; how do you take care of yourself, how do you get the life force to be with you?

People who struggle, people who become ill mostly have one thing in common, they are good caring people. The problem is a simple one, many people want to be loved and accepted, they want to please and take care of their loved ones and family so they continually make withdrawals from their personal energy bank account.  

Imagine we start of with so much energy, imagine it as a ball if you like that surrounds you, then as time goes bye, we keep giving this energy away without getting anything back, or only getting a little back once in a while.  We say yes when we want to say no, we dress in a way that our partner likes, we behave in ways other people think suitable, we are not taught to be able to say the magic word which honours our inner feelings “NO!”  If you grew up in a happy healthy family, you naturally took on your parent’s values and behaviours to some extent.   If you grew up in a dysfunctional family then you would also have taken on those values and behaviours to some extent.  But actually it is the Social values which often give us the most grief, and a part of our society at one time believed in “Sacrifice,” as an essential part of being a good Christian. 

But someone got it wrong, when we sacrifice we end up sick, mentally, emotionally and physically.  When we respect other people more than our selves, we end up sick, mentally, emotionally and physically.  The essential part of life is self respect, and this does not mean that you are mean to other people, is rather implies that you  must find ways to keep depositing energy into your own bank account, or bubble of energy in order that you then have the energy to choose to help others, and be of assistance in a genuine way rather  than doing things begrudgingly.

How do we deposit into our personal bank accounts?
Its easy, do something every day which makes your heart sing, move with joy though your day, laugh at the silly things in life, play with your creative energy once in a while.   Do things every day that you like to do, even if its just a few minutes, try this today.

Pick 3 things you love,
• Could be a walk in the park or on the beach
• Could be listening to music
• Could be painting or drawing
• Could be cooking
• Could be playing with your cat or kids
• Could be simply relaxing with your feet up.
• Or buying a special cup of coffee and sitting quietly and savouring every mouthful.
It doesn’t matter what it is, (providing its legal) but set 3 X 10 minute breaks, and make them happen in your day. 

People say they don’t have time, well for all those people who say you don’t have time, I have news for you.  If you don’t have time, you wont have energy and you will keep struggling simply because your personal bank account will end up empty and you will end up crashing and burning. 

Hard line:   I am going to take the hard line here, simply because when people come to see me they are often, “crashing and burning,” they are in tears, emotionally mentally and physically exhausted and confused. They hate their jobs, hate their lives, hate their families demands, they want to run away and start again.

Have you ever felt like that?  

Often people do run away, they do start again and guess what; they create that same scenario over and over again, until they end up with cancer or some other illness which stops them from running.

So, if you can relate to this article why not email, or phone me?  I can help you define your life and your life boundaries and in doing that, help you solve the energy crisis once and for all.

Life is really not meant to be a struggle, it is meant to be that your energy supports your life journey and your life is good.

That’s all from me today, take care till next time.   Many Blessings and may your bank account always be overflowing. TRUITY Williams
